Chapter 81 One Victory and One Defeat
In just a few rounds at the start, Shrek's side was completely on the defensive.
With her powerful Soul King level strength and top-quality Angelic Martial Soul, Yu Mengdi launched a strong frontal attack, exerting considerable pressure. Yang Yifan, on the other hand, was like a persistent leech, constantly moving around looking for opportunities. Each sneak attack was precisely timed to strike during Xu Sanshi and Bei Bei's breathing breaks or defensive transitions, forcing the two to expend a great deal of energy to deal with the situation, creating numerous dangerous situations.
Xu Sanshi wielded the Xuanming Shield with impenetrable force, parrying, blocking, and striking, demonstrating his defensive skills to the fullest.
Sweat beaded on his forehead, and his breathing became heavier. Although Beibei's lightning attacks were ferocious, they were often weakened and dissipated by Yumengdi's Holy Light Sword, making it difficult to form an effective continuous offensive.
"This can't go on!" Bei Bei roared, and a bolt of lightning forced back Yang Yifan, who was trying to launch another sneak attack.
"Damn it, this fly is so annoying!" Xu Sanshi gritted his teeth and once again used his shield to deflect Yu Mengdi's lightsaber slash, his tiger's mouth going numb.
However, as he parried Yang Yifan's unpredictable and cunning dagger attacks time and again, Xu Sanshi's eyes grew increasingly bright. He was exceptionally skilled in defense and possessed an extraordinary perception of the trajectory and rhythm of attacks.
Although Yang Yifan was fast and his attack angles were unpredictable, after several attempts, Xu Sanshi had vaguely figured out some of his habits and the signs that his soul skills were about to be activated.
"Third Soul Skill, Angel's Blessing."
Angelic Martial Soul's status skill can double the attack power of her next attack.
Yu Mengdi's lightsaber strike forced Xu Sanshi to shift his center of gravity slightly backward.
Just as the old force had dissipated and the new force had not yet arisen, the dark figure arrived as expected, its dagger aimed straight at the opening in Xu Sanshi's lower body exposed by his parry!
But this time, a sharp glint flashed in Xu Sanshi's eyes!
"Now! Xuanming Zhen!"
Instead of attempting to completely dodge or block, he frantically poured all his soul power into the Xuanming Tortoise Shell Shield. The flowing water-like aura on the massive shield suddenly became deep and viscous, and in the center of the shield, a blurry and ancient phantom seemed to flash by, unleashing an aura far heavier and more boundless than before!
No longer a simple Xuanming Shield, but imbued with the concentrated will of an ancient divine beast, the Xuanming Shield has half-awakened, becoming the Xuanwu Shield!
His martial spirit was not fully awakened, and he could only achieve a temporary awakening through this burst of power. Therefore, that awakened strike had to hit.
Based on his prediction, Xu Sanshi adjusted the angle of his shield by the slightest margin, not by blocking head-on, but by tilting it!
"Clang!" The tip of the dagger struck the shield at an angle with pinpoint accuracy.
Just as Yang Yifan felt a surge of smug satisfaction at his success, his expression changed drastically in an instant. He felt as if his dagger had pierced into a boundless, heavy, and resilient swamp.
All the impact and penetrating force were absorbed and contained by that shield, which had become incredibly eerie.
"Get out!" Xu Sanshi roared, his shield trembling violently.
An irresistible, powerful, and heavy shockwave suddenly returned along the dagger. Yang Yifan felt an immense force crash into his body, causing his blood and qi to surge and churn instantly. His entire arm was in excruciating pain and numbness, and he almost dropped the dagger.
He was as if he had been hit head-on by a prehistoric beast, completely unable to control his body. His feet left the ground, and he flew backward like a kite with a broken string, drawing an arc before crashing heavily outside the arena.
The entire audience erupted in uproar!
The agility-based Soul Master from Zhengtian Academy was actually cleared out of the arena by Xu Sanshi in such a way, relying on defensive counterattack.
The situation reversed instantly, two against one!
"Well done, San Shi!" Bei Bei roared, his spirits lifted. With his teammate having dealt with the annoying attacker, he could finally go all out!
Zhou Yi nodded secretly, it was worth it for her to specially recall Xu Sanshi. Although he lost to Dai Youheng in the selection competition, his combat strength was still very outstanding among those of the same level.
Facing Yu Mengdi's drastically changed expression, a resolute glint flashed in Bei Bei's eyes. He took a deep breath, and the Holy Light Dragon bloodline within him burned wildly at an unprecedented intensity! The lightning all over his body suddenly turned into a dazzling white-gold, and a layer of noble and holy halo covered the originally blue-purple dragon scales.
Although brief, at this moment, his martial spirit underwent a qualitative change under the stimulation of his bloodline power!
Holy Dragon of Light!
"Fifth Soul Skill, Angelic God-Sealing Slash!" Yu Mengdi felt a powerful threat and unhesitatingly activated his strongest soul skill. Golden light shone brightly around him, and his holy aura rose again. He merged the light swords in his hands into one, transforming them into a huge holy light judgment sword, and went all out!
"Overlord Thunder Prison!" Beibei roared, and the lightning, fused with the power of the Holy Dragon of Light, transformed into a destructive white-gold sea of lightning, sweeping towards Yu Mengdi like a tidal wave.
Yu Mengdi let out a fierce shout, and the holy sword danced wildly, slicing through bolts of lightning. The holy light and the white-gold lightning collided and annihilated each other, with explosions coming one after another.
But she was ultimately fighting two against one. As she was desperately resisting Bei Bei's earth-shattering attack, Xu Sanshi made his move! He hurled the massive Xuanwu Shield like a mountain, carrying an overwhelming force that sealed off all her escape routes!
Ahead, the Lightning Prison bombarded relentlessly, while from the side, the Xuanwu Shield rammed into them with overwhelming force. Yu Mengdi exerted all her strength to shatter a patch of lightning and break through the Xuanwu Shield, but her own soul power instantly plummeted, creating a slight gap in her defenses.
A thin yet incredibly refined streak of platinum-gold lightning darted through the gap in the defenses like a serpent, striking her shoulder with pinpoint accuracy.
"Ugh!" Yu Mengdi groaned in pain, her whole body went numb, her divine aura instantly dissipated, and the angelic wings behind her became illusory. She staggered back more than ten steps before barely managing to stand, her face pale, having lost the strength to fight any longer.
The referee quickly stepped forward, assessed the situation, and announced loudly, "Match one, two against two, Shrek Academy wins!"
The entire arena fell silent for a moment, then erupted in thunderous applause and cheers! No one had expected that Shrek Academy would pull off such a tenacious and spectacular comeback victory against a Soul King with an Angelic Martial Soul! The strongest offensive and defensive combination from the outer academy truly lived up to its name!
Xu Sanshi and Bei Bei returned to their team and received praise from everyone. Dai Youheng also nodded to himself.
After their martial spirits awakened again, they were truly formidable. The reason he was able to easily defeat Xu Sanshi was that he interrupted Xu Sanshi's awakening before it was even complete; otherwise, he wouldn't have won so easily.
Now he is even more excited about the second awakening of his Shadow Tiger.
It is hoped that after the Evil Shadow Tiger awakens, it will possess power surpassing that of the Xuanwu Shield and the Holy Dragon of Light.
Shrek Academy won the first match. In the second match, Zhou Yi sent out Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu, hoping to use their Martial Soul Fusion Skill to fight against Tang Xiaolei, the second Soul King.
Tang Xiaolei is the weakest of the three Soul Kings from Zhengtian Academy, and his Soul Rings are not the best, but rather two yellow and three purple.
When Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu unleashed their Netherworld White Tigers, they were initially evenly matched with their opponents. However, their soul power was ultimately inferior to their opponents', and they lacked the explosive power of Bei Bei. The consumption of a Martial Soul Fusion Skill was far greater than that of an ordinary Soul Skill. After a quarter of an hour of fighting, they were finally defeated due to exhaustion of their soul power.
Dai Huabin walked off the field with a face full of resentment. If it weren't for the fact that his power had been reduced so much due to the sacrifice of the evil soul master, he might not have lost. At this moment, his father was watching the battle from the stands, and he had actually lost face in front of his father. This was the most unacceptable thing for him.
